Why You Should Choose GO Concepts

It’s not our extensive governmental experience since 1997. It’s not our exclusive focus on the DD community.  It’s not our long list of satisfied customers or our equally long list of successfully implemented, varying types of projects. It’s one simple reason… we work with you, not just for you, so you can focus on what matters most.  We are your corporate-grade technology partner supporting your on-the-go organization, with scalable solutions, managed IT services, and providing the peace of mind to propel your operations forward, so you can sleep well at night.  Our core business is providing best-in-class Managed IT, IT Consulting, Email Solutions, Datacenter Services, Virtual Private Servers and Remote Desktops, to all those we are fortunate to be able to serve.

“Our passion is helping those helping others.  Our mission in doing so is to provide the absolute best possible experience for all our clients, while being recognized as the leader in IT-related services for organizations and businesses serving Ohio’s developmentally disabled individuals.”  John Gambill Jr, CEO / Co-founder of GO Concepts, Inc
